In response to the Deputy's question, I can confirm that both the security and contract cleaning companies procured for the Department of Health are paying the legal Employment Regulation Order (ERO) hourly rates to their employees.

I have also forwarded your question to the HSE for direct reply. Details for other bodies under the aegis of the Department are operational matters for the bodies concerned and the Deputy should contact the relevant Director/CEO/Registrar directly.
